In a lithium-ion battery, the anode is negative during discharge. It releases electrons that flow to the positive cathode. This movement of electrons generates electric current. Therefore, the anode serves as the negative electrode, while the cathode functions as the positive electrode in the battery.

This appears to violate the convention as the anode is the terminal into which current flows. A vacuum tube, diode or a battery on charge follows this order; however taking power away from a battery on discharge turns the anode negative. Since the battery is an electric storage device providing energy, the battery anode is always negative.
